# William Hawes (composer)

William Hawes (1785 – 18 February 1846) was an English musician and composer. He was the Master of the Children of the Chapel Royal and musical director of the Lyceum Theatre bringing several notable works to the public's attention.

## Life

Hawes was born in London, and was for eight years (1793–1801) a chorister of the Chapel Royal, where he studied music, mainly under Edmund Ayrton. He subsequently held various musical posts, being master of the choristers at St Paul's Cathedral in London from 1812 to 1846.
In 1816 his third daughter, Maria Hawes, was born. She was baptised in the same year and the singer Elizabeth Billington was her godmother. Her full name was Maria Dowding Billington Hawes and she would be a noted singer.
In 1817 he was appointed Master of the Children of the Chapel Royal. According to one of the choristers under his charge at that time, Samuel Sebastian Wesley, William Hawes was a disciplinarian who would freely whip the choirboys with a riding whip when they made mistakes. Wesley remembered Maria Hackett giving them succulent buns to help alleviate the pain.
In 1818 Hawes was a founding member of the Regent’s Harmonic Institution (later renamed the Royal Harmonic Institution in 1820); a music publishing firm established with the intent of raising funds for the Royal Philharmonic Society and its restoration of the Argyll Rooms. Eventually Hawes and composer Thomas Welsh obtained a controlling interest in this publishing firm, and it became known as 'Welsh and Hawes, at the Royal Harmonic Institution' in September 1825. Hawes remained active in this music publishing enterprise until July 1827 when he declared bankruptcy; although the firm continued to publish music under Welsh's leadership through May 1833.
Hawes was for many years musical director of the Lyceum Theatre, London, then devoted to English opera. In this capacity (on 23 July 1824), he introduced Weber's Der Freischütz for the first time in England, at first slightly curtailed, but soon afterwards in its entirety. Winter's Interrupted Sacrifice, Mozart's Così fan tutte, Marschner's Der Vampyr and other important works were also brought out under his auspices.
Hawes wrote or compiled the music for numerous pieces. Better were his glees and madrigals, of which he published two series. His The bee, the golden daughter of the spring won at the Glee Club in 1836. He also edited and published in 1814 the first re-edition of The Triumphs of Oriana.
His great-great-grandson was the composer Sir Malcolm Arnold

# William H. Burke Jr.

William H. Burke Jr. (1906-1975) was an American political figure who served as chairman of the Massachusetts Democratic Party and Collector of Customs for the Port of Boston.

## Early life

Burke was born in 1906 to William H. Burke Sr. and Della Maloney Burke in Hatfield, Massachusetts. He attended Smith Academy and St. John's Preparatory School.
Burke began his political involvement in 1934 when he assisted James Michael Curley during his successful run for Governor of Massachusetts. During Curley's tenure as Governor, Burke worked as a placement officer in the State Public Works Department.
In 1938 he ran for Treasurer and Receiver-General of Massachusetts. He finished fifth in an eight-candidate Democratic primary.

## Chairman of the Massachusetts Democratic Party

On September 16, 1939, Burke was unanimously elected chairman of the Massachusetts Democratic Party. At the time of his election he was 33 years old and working as a farmer in Hatfield. He resigned on December 9, 1944, after he was named Collector of Customs for the Port of Boston.

## Collector of Customs for the Port of Boston

In 1944, Burke was appointed Collector of Customs for the Port of Boston by president Franklin D. Roosevelt. Burke was confirmed by the United States Senate on November 23, 1944, and sworn in on December 17, 1944. He resigned in 1952 after Republican Dwight D. Eisenhower was elected president.

## Return as chairman

In 1952 Burke challenged John C. Carr for the chairmanship of the Massachusetts Democratic Party. Although Carr was declared the winner, Burke challenged the result in court. In 1956, the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court ruled that Carr was not legally elected Massachusetts Democratic Party chairman in 1952 and Burke became party chairman as a result of a court order. Burke was supported by House Majority Leader John William McCormack, but opposed by Senator John F. Kennedy. Kennedy opposed Burke because Kennedy supported Adlai Stevenson for the party's presidential nomination in 1956 while Burke supported McCormack. Kennedy supported John M. Lynch for the position of chairman because he was a Stevenson supporter, but not too close to Kennedy. Kennedy felt that if someone who was close to him personally was chosen as chairman, it would appear that Burke was removed for personal gain and not to better the party. Burke was defeated by Lynch 47 votes to 31 at the 1956 convention.

## Death

Burke died on April 17, 1975, after suffering a heart attack at his home in Hatfield.
